Friend,

"Crisis Pregnancy Centers" (CPCs), or fake health clinics, are
anti-abortion organizations that seek to intercept pregnant people who may
be considering abortion and prevent them from accessing reproductive
healthcare. Most CPCs are religiously-affiliated nonprofit organizations,
and they present themselves as unbiased medical providers (even though
they are not).

There are 176 CPCs in California, compared to 166 abortion clinics.

And when people search for "abortion clinic" on Google, they’re often
being directed to CPCs instead that pretend to provide reproductive care
but actually don’t even employ medical professionals. We need to put a
stop to this practice.

This Halloween, Courage California has joined with a coalition of
advocates to use social media to fight CPCs. You can help by customizing
and sharing the below post all over your pages! Just click which platform
you'd like to use to get started

[ [link removed] ]We have three different images you can share -- see them all here!

Our coalition's website lets people look up clinics in the area and make
sure that CPCs are clearly marked. They can add CPCs to a database of fake
clinics. And they can spread the word on their own social media!

This Halloween, we can stop more people from being tricked by fake health
clinics. Will you share today?
